novelHe's Her Husband, A Tragedy! (II)

"President, what's the matter?" Chu Wuyou opened the door and just stood there watching Ye Lanchen with a faint smile on her face. Her innocent face even revealed a hint of confusion.
No one would have suspected anything about that expression.
Not Secretary Li.
Ye Lanchen threw her a glance. Then, he pushed the door wider and walked straight into the room.
Secretary Li frowned upon seeing the president's decision. It was inappropriate for the man to enter Assistant Chu's room at this late hour. She was a woman after all.
The president should not have done that even if he had to talk about important business.
"President, is there something urgent? Or I'll take my rest otherwise. I'm married after all and it's inappropriate to let you into my room at this time. My husband is a petty man. He'll hit me if there's a misunderstanding between us." Instead of stopping the man, she shied away to the side.
She lowered her head as she spoke timidly to show her anxiousness, and made the perfect first move to announce she was a married woman. If Ye Lanchen said they were husband and wife later, Secretary Li would be suspicious as long as she refused to admit.
Of course, she did not forget to use this opportunity to scold the man too.
The latter stopped in his movement to look at her. His face showed displeasure.
Petty? Hit her?
When had he been petty? When had he hit her?
Secretary Li who already felt strange about the situation became even worried upon hearing the woman's words. He wanted to say something initially but the look on the president's face made him swallow back the words.
"You can leave now." Third Young Master Ye glanced coldly at the secretary before taking another big step toward the room.
"Secretary Li, can you help me out, please?" Chu Wuyou darted her eyes between the two men as a nervous look washed over her face. She appeared as if about to cry.
"Assistant Chu, this room actually belongs to the President. Maybe you should move your things to the other room." Although the secretary was scared himself, he could not refuse the frightened woman's plea.
He had no idea what the president was thinking. The president that he knew would not be petty over a hotel room.
However, he really could not think of another reason to justify the man's decision. If the president preferred to have this room, then it should not be a problem to have Assistant Chu move to the other room?
"Yes, sure." The woman nodded in satisfaction and took the cue to leave.
"Chu Wuyou, I dare you to take another step." Third Young Master Ye was already sitting on the bed by now but that did not diminish his domineering manner.
His voice was reeking with intimidation and threat.
Secretary Li felt his legs shaking with fear.
The woman stopped in her tracks. She stood there motionless as she hung her head even lower, both her fists clenched together tightly. She appeared in immense fear.
Secretary Li could not bring himself to leave the woman alone in this circumstance.
"President, Assistant Chu is a married woman after all, not to mention that her husband is an abusive petty man. I heard people like that could get really brutal..." He sighed fearfully before forcing those words out of his lips.
